Anybody up for a round of crazy decks based around bad cards? Give me any card (preferably not vanilla creatures) and I’ll make a deck around it, using the named card as a centerpoint.
You could do things like life from the loam or sunforger, or anything that you want to see a deck about. I’ll take the most recently posted one and write an article about it for the forums!
Please keep in mind that to make a deck around a card, it needs some sort of ability with which I can build a combo. Suggesting norwood ranger just isn’t going to yield a deck.
If you could keep it to standard, that would be good, since I’ve only ever played standard seriously. |

It did remind me of that, but I didn’t mean it as a joke...  |

4 Natural Affinity
4 Gifts Ungiven
4 Genju of Cedars
4 Genju of the Falls
2 Reclaim
4 Groundskeeper
4 Earth Surge

So quiet around here... 
How about a combo -- Hunted Horror + Leyline of Singularity?  |

| I’m on the case (and actually I was starting a casual deck about that . Already picked up the leylines and two horrors. I’ll be done with the deck and the write-up by tomorrow most likely. |
